I really stress the importance of having a professional exfoliation. We offer a few different methods—whether it is a peel or microdermabrasion—that offer beneficial results depending on the clients' skin and their concerns.
I take care of my skin very diligently, have a good basic skin care regime and get facials regularly. Although, the last few years I have noticed very small red vein like areas on my face. I asked my esthetician what this was caused from and she told me I was suffering from cuperose. Could you please elaborate on exactly what this skin condition is and what I can do to prevent the condition from worsening?
Cuperose is a physical thing that is pretty easily corrected (with some very available technology), just as easily prevented, and pretty easily avoided. What cuperose is, is generally very small capillaries that have 'broken' near the surface of the skin, and are allowing blood to flow through - giving the area a distinctly 'red' color. To avoid future cuperose, limit your: 1) Steaming hot water on your face time. 3) Self-extraction, uncontrolled blackhead removal. 4) Nose-blowing into anything less than soffffft (and moisturizing!). Good luck!
